LGTM, I'll merge it in.
> Gradle variable applicationId is not set, creates issue with Google Play services 8.3.0
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-10014
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-10014
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Android
> Affects Versions: 5.4.1
> Reporter: Josh Kasten
> Labels: android, gradle
>
> applicationId is not set in build.gradle which creates an issue with com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement:8.3.0.
This aar file has the following line in AndroidManifest.xml
> {code:xml}
> <provider
> android:authorities="${applicationId}.google_measurement_service"
> android:name="com.google.android.gms.measurement.AppMeasurementContentProvider"
> android:exported="false"/>
> {code}
> applicationId becomes `com.google.android.gms.measurement` when the manifest entry is
merged since applicationId is not set in the main project .gradle file. This means that if
another app also includes the Google Play services library 8.3.0 it will fail to install on
the device with an INSTALL_FAILED_CONFLICTING_PROVIDER error because the name isn't unique.
> This is silent problem to developers as it only becomes an issue when the end user installs
2 apps built this way. This should be addressed quickly to prevent this error when developers
release their APK or provide a work around for plugin developers to add something to their
plugin.xml to default in the applicationId gradle variable.
> Thanks.
